Are you Killing yourself by not Expressing Enough? — Domestication
A bird that is domesticated cannot go out there to resume its life in the wide wild world, no matter how you leave it. Even if you leave it in the garden, it will not be in a position to search for its own food or build a nest, or actually protect itself from its rival.
Talking about the ‘freedom’ of that particular bird, in the right sense of mind you will not leave it out if it’s domesticated for a long time. The simple reason is, its survival will be under threat. For every other life on earth, food shelter and protection are primary needs, and when one is not equipped to find them, they’re notion the condition to survive. So have you imagined the kind of issues that might actually come in when the same thing is happening to a human?
People generally say, ‘be independent’. It’s a very common term, especially told to housewives.
Have you ever thought of being in their position and looking at things from their perspective, when you casually tell them to be independent, go out, and make a living for themselves?
After being in the household and controlling all the magical strings to keep it together, how tough would it be for that woman to actually put their thoughts together when these words are said to them?
If someone comes to you for advice, never tell them ways in which they should be leading their lives. Cause you have no idea of how long they’ve been in this ‘domesticated’ life, away from the world. You have no idea of how tough it would be for them to even step out and actually crack a nerve. You and I can’t run the house as magically as they do.
Similarly, all of us have our own strengths and weaknesses. So, let’s not make domestication a way of living for someone if we have a choice. And, let’s also not force someone to go out into the world and make a living for themselves.
Let People Live their own lives, and let’s understand and acknowledge that everyone in our Family/Society has their own Independent Lives rather than just being someone’s Wife/Daughter/Husband/Father/Sister.
And — never domesticate people/living beings for a longer time. The destructive side effects are limitless.
